Package: gnupg2
Version: 2.1.9-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I wanted to use gpg2 for "everything" like signing git tags, etc. Since
these tools still invoke gpg directly I checked /etc/alternatives/gpg
but did not find any so I went for:
cat <<EOF
#!/bin/bash
exec gpg2 "$*"
in the path to invoke gpg2 instead of gpg Is that the recommended
procedure in Debian atm or did I miss docs on that? I checked
man gpg2
and /usr/share/doc/gnupg2/README.Debian but did not find any pointers on
this issue.
